Notwithstanding the foregoing, a member who is serving on the Council on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly and whose term expires as a result of the changes made by this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly may complete the unexpired portion of his or her term.

performing approved duties of the Council.
The Council
shall meet at least 4 times per year at times and places designated by the Chairperson

direct financial benefit to the member or otherwise give the appearance of a
conflict of interest under Illinois law.

vocational rehabilitation program, regarding the resources
necessary to carry out the functions of the Council as set forth in this
Section, the
disagreement shall be resolved by the Governor.

public health system is in place to allow the public health mission to be achieved. The public health system is the collection of public, private, and voluntary entities as well as individuals and informal associations that contribute to the public's health within the State. To
develop a public health system requires certain core functions to be performed by
government. The State Board of Health is to assume the leadership role in
advising the Director in meeting the following functions:
There shall be a State Board of Health composed of 20 persons,
all of
whom shall be appointed by the Governor, with the advice and consent of the
Senate for those appointed by the Governor on and after June 30, 1998,
and one of whom shall be a

All members shall
be legal residents of the State of Illinois. The duties of the Board shall
include, but not be limited to, the following:
Upon appointment, the Board shall elect a chairperson from among its
members.
Members of the Board shall receive compensation for their services at the
rate of $150 per day, not to exceed $10,000 per year, as designated by the
Director for each day required for transacting the business of the Board
and shall be reimbursed for necessary expenses incurred in the performance
of their duties. The Board shall meet from time to time at the call of the
Department, at the call of the chairperson, or upon the request of 3 of its
members, but shall not meet less than 4 times per year.

Board. In the appointment of the first Board the Governor shall appoint 3
members to serve for terms of one year, 3 for terms of 2 years, and 3 for
terms of 3 years. The members first appointed under Public Act 83-1538 shall serve for a term of 3 years. All members appointed thereafter
shall be appointed for terms of 3 years, except that when an
appointment is made
to fill a vacancy, the appointment shall be for the remaining
term of the position vacant. The members of the Board shall be citizens of
the State of Illinois. In the appointment of members of the Advisory Board,
the Governor shall appoint 3 members who shall be persons licensed to
practice medicine and surgery in the State of Illinois, at least 2 of whom
shall have received post-graduate training in the field of pathology; 3
members who are duly elected coroners in this State; and 5 members who
shall have interest and abilities in the field of forensic medicine but who
shall be neither persons licensed to practice any branch of medicine in
this State nor coroners. In the appointment of medical and coroner members
of the Board, the Governor shall invite nominations from recognized medical
and coroners organizations in this State respectively. Board members, while
